I don’t currently claim free school meals – what does this mean for me?
If you think you might be eligible for free school meals, submit a claim to the school. Your school has application forms you can use. The Information you provide will be used to check if you are in receipt of a qualifying benefit and, if you are on Universal Credit, that your earnings do not exceed the threshold. If you claim Universal Credit, your earnings will be assessed from up to three of your last Universal Credit assessment periods.
If you are eligible, your child will receive free school meals and the school will receive extra funding.
